for porridge is too well known to need comment here. I would only remind everyone that Provost Oats are prepared from the finest Scotch grain, and Scotch oats are the finest in the world. But Provost Oats is not the only product upon which Messrs Robinson & Sons rest their fame. More recently they have put upon the market a very fine cereal food known as

Provost Nuts.

This is a highly concentrated and nutritious and sustaining food, but can be digested very easily, and so is suitable in one form or other for every one. It is a grain food scientifically prepared from a combination of wheat, barley, and malt. Being cooked and ready for use it may be served simply with a little cream, milk, or stewed fruit; or cyclists or other travellers may munch them dry, and so compass the simple life right away. Besides au naturel, however, they may enter with advantage into quite a variety of dishes—to thicken and enrich soups, to take the place of bread crumbs in savouries, and to contrive quite a number of new and excellent puddings. Recipes for the latter are given, p. 108, and I am sure they need only be tried to become first favourites.

Kornules

are a somewhat similar preparation, and can be used in the same way.
